dleton-Wake), in 1878, questioned the genuineness of all but 
329. Michel, in 1893, with hesitation in some cases, settled 
upon 270. Von Seidlitz, in 1895, reached the conclusion that 
only 260 could with certainty be credited to Rembrandt 
Further comment on this subject is not made here, since it 
is not deemed to be the mission of the Grolier Club to under- 
take work which may be regarded as more properly within 
the province of a public institution possessed of a permanent 
collection of prints. 

In the various catalogues of Rembrandt's etchings, conflict- 
ing views ha.ve resulted in differences of classification and 
numbering. In the present catalogue, Dutuit has been fol- 
lowed in determining states as well as in the classification ac- 
cording to subjects. Twelve divisions are made as follows : 
(1) Portraits of Rembrandt; (2) Subjects from the Old Tes- 
tament; (3) Subjects from the New Testament; (4) Pious 
Subjects; (5) Allegorical, Historical and Fancy Subjects; 
(6) Beggars ; (7) Free Subjects and Academic Figures ; (8) 
Landscapes; (9) Portraits of Men; (10) Fancy Heads of 
Men; (n) Portraits of Women; (12) Studies of Heads and 
Sketches. This is an earlier classification than that adopted 
by Middleton-Wake, who placed all the prints under four 
heads, namely: (1) Studies and Portraits; (2) Biblical and 
Religious Subjects; (3) Fancy Subjects, and (4) Landscapes. 

While the present exhibition is notable as a whole, yet 
some of the impressions are worthy of special remark. Such 
are those of " Christ Healing the Sick" (the hundred-guilder 



printj, "Christ Preaching/' " Christ Before Pilate" ( D. S$), 
one of six impre known to ; the portraits of 

Clement de Jonghe, Van Tolling, Old Haaring, Y

provision for a print department in the New Public Li- 
brary, this city may, in the course of time, possess such a 
public collection as will be worthy of the metropolis of this 
country. 

Doubts exist regarding the dates of Rembrandt's birth and 
death. 

Orlers and Van Leeuwen say that he was born in 1606, 
and Sir F. Seymour Haden (with whom Messrs. Michel and 
Colvin agree) gives reasons for being of the same opinion. 
Others say that 1608 was the year. Mr. Middleton-Wake, 
however, is quite positive that Vosmaer's date of 1607 is correct^ 

Nearly all writers and commentators are agreed that Rem- 
brandt was born at Ley den, and that the day of his birth was the 
15th of July, and that he died in October, 1669, at Amster- 
dam, where he was buried in the Wester Kerk on October 8th. 

It may be noted that the earliest date found upon any of 
his etchings is 1628, while he was still at Leyden, and that 
the latest is 1661. 

The student is referred to the following authorities which 
may be consulted with special reference to the life of Rem- 
brandt as well as his etched work :
